Series of Links

As for the sneeze blog post, I'd like to end the series of blog posts with admiring some of my favorite links that have been highlighted throughout this blog page. I think when looking at a blog, it can sometimes be overwhelming with seeing so much information on a website. I tried to make my blog simple and easy to read and I really hope that was achieved to the readers. To start off, the "Dr Boris Levinson" blog post I wrote has a link attached to that. I think with starting a blog revolving therapy, it's good to give credit to the creator behind animal therapy. This link shows the history of Levinson and how much of an impact he had on the psychology world. Now moving on, "Correlation between cats and mental health" is the very first blog post I ever wrote. If you take time out of your day to re-read that blog post it really shows how far this business has come. I think understanding how cats and mental health even relate the slightest will help you have a positive mindset to supporting my business. Cats4Health allowed to me express myself in ways that I've never imagined. Being a creator of a business can be extremely taught especially when people are wishing failure upon you. One thing I learned is to follow your dreams and never give up. Life is what you make of it and if your living your life to please other people, then you’re doing it wrong!

According to Husson University, "the presence of an animal prompts the body to release serotonin, prolactin and oxytocin. These hormones generate a relaxation and stress-reducing response. This hormone release can lower symptoms of depression and sadness, helping support good mental health."   2. Psychical Health It can be common knowledge that there are mental health benefits from animal therapy, but a lot of people are sometimes surprised to hear about the psychical benefits.

As a blogger, it's so common to read other people's blogs and become inspired by their content. Ever since I created this blog, I've made a lot of online friends that feel the same way I feel about animal therapy. One of my favorite blog pages is called "PAWS Your Stress Blog" that has a lot of insightful information. It's a blog page that allows actual people to post a blog and give some detail on their experience with a therapy animal. One of my favorite blog posts was titled, "From Pets to Therapy Animals: My first interaction."

Therapy has been a mental health concept that has been around for a while. Many people either fully support therapy and many people don't fully see the benefits of it. However, during the 1960s, the very first formal research involving animal therapy begun by a man named Dr. Boris Levinson. Dr. Boris Levinson found that his dog had a very positive effect on mentally impaired patients. He was the director of human animal companion therapy and had many great discovering's throughout his career. He noticed that humans were more comfortable and were more likely to socialize with his dog than with other humans. The noticeable changes in human behavior when interacting with animals is the main reason why Animal Therapy has become such a huge part in today's therapeutic practices.
